Revelation 16:16

They gathered (sunhgagen). Second aorist active indicative of sunagw, singular (the three unclean spirits), like ekporeuetai in verse Revelation 16:14.

Har-Magedon (ar-Magedwn). John proceeds now after the interruption in verse Revelation 16:15. Perhaps "the mountains of Megiddo" though not certain. Megiddo is in the valley of Esdraelon, and by the waters of Megiddo (the Kishon) Israel gained a decisive victory over Sisera (Judges 5:19), celebrated in Deborah's song. See also Revelation 20:8 ff. and Ezekiel 39:2, Ezekiel 39:4.
